Well just get your car done a bit at a time. It will get better sooner or later. I used to have issues all the time too. Now, I just have issues every now and then! lol!

OK sounds good. New shocks are nice to have. I had mine replaced as one of the first things I did about a year and a half ago.

I like the look of a 'Mr Gasket' scoop coming out of the hood. I've been trying to decide on a scoop for my '68 Cougar and am considering a 70/71 Torino shaker.

Its not a Mr. Gasket scoop but they all look alike. Ya, that scoop would look good in my opinion.
